The National Consumer Commission (NCC) hereby informs consumers of a recall of NAN Special Pro HA Infant Formula (0–12 months), which is intended for the dietary management of infants at risk of developing cow’s milk protein allergy. The affected product is NAN Special Pro HA 800g with batch number 51660742F3. The product was produced in June 2025 through all major retailers and distributors across South Africa. It was also exported to Namibia and Eswatini.

The product recall follows the identification of a potential presence of Cereulide, a toxin produced by Bacillus cereus, which constitutes a food safety concern. The NAN infant formula has a lifespan of approximately eighteen months.

Consumers in possession of the affected NAN Special Pro HA Infant Formula 800g are urged to return the product to the point of purchase for a full refund. The NCC will continue to monitor the matter and engage with the supplier to ensure ongoing compliance with the food safety requirements.
